Ashburton is a blue-chip family suburb, and the four-bedroom home is squarely at the centre of it. More four-bedroom houses changed hands over the past year than any other type, with a median around $2.045m and around two in three selling under the hammer. The three-bedroom home, near $1.475m, clears the strongest of all at close to three in four, so the entry point into the suburb is in genuine demand.
As stock and confidence build heading into the warmer months, the softer note is the very top. Five-bedroom homes above $2.3m are clearing at just over half.
For most owners here the market is working in their favour, particularly in the three and four-bedroom range where buyers are active and competing. If you are selling a larger home, a price grounded in this year's local sales, rather than last year's, is what carries a campaign through to a strong result.

Good property management should remove uncertainty, not create more of it.
If you're considering engaging a property manager, one of the first questions you're likely to ask is: how much does property management actually cost?
Owning an investment property and owning a good investment property are not necessarily the same thing. It’s an important distinction, and one that property investors should revisit regularly.
The Reserve Bank's decision to leave the cash rate on hold at 4.35 per cent is welcome news for buyers, sellers and businesses alike. While it's not a silver bullet for Melbourne's property market, it should provide some reassurance that the aggressive phase of the interest rate tightening cycle may be easing.
